But which Norwich City players could be worth considering for your team? We've taken a look at the pre-season numbers to highlight a few with the potential of returning points in the game.

DEF

With a budget of £100m to spend on 15 players, £4.0m defenders who are playing regularly can be essential to FPL managers, which is why Andrew Omobamidele has caught the eye in pre-season.

Big Andy has played more minutes than any other City player in pre-season, so all eyes will be on Daniel Farke’s team selection for the Premier League opener against Liverpool on Saturday.

Grant Hanley has been unable to feature during pre-season, but will he come straight back into the defence? We’ll bring you all the latest team news from Daniel Farke’s press conference on Friday afternoon.

Christoph Zimmermann (£4.5m) has also made five appearances during pre-season. Elsewhere, Dimitris Giannoulis (£4.5m) has only played twice in pre-season but got one assist and is likely to continue bombing forward from left-back in 2021/22.

MID

Todd Cantwell (£5.5m) has been the standout performer in midfield from an FPL point of view in pre-season with four assists in four games, making him an affordable source of potential points in the game.

Kieran Dowell (£5.5m) has got two goals and one assist in five games after ending 2020/21 on impressive form in the Sky Bet Championship.

Lukas Rupp (£4.5m) and Pierre Lees-Melou (£5.0m) could also be options worth considering, both having played five games in pre-season. Lees-Melou has scored twice while Rupp has managed one goal and one assist.

ATT

Up front, Adam Idah (£5.0m) has been the most prolific performer during pre-season with four goals in five games.

Teemu Pukki (£6.0m) has featured less regularly, but scored one goal in his two games and became a cult hero in FPL two seasons ago when he started the season on excellent form.
